Hoshino Coffee

On 3 Jul 2017, it was announced that Tim Ho Wan (one of my favourite eatery) will exit from this country and Hoshino Coffee from Japan is now in its place in Midvalley/Gardens Mall.

Strawberry French Toast - MYR 19.90+ (10% service charge = MYR 21.90 nett). The whipped cream is not that heavy so it was not cloying. Not the best but acceptable as it was not too sweet and due to the fact that I cannot resist strawberries.

Looks the same!

Fruit Tea (Hot) = MYR 17.90+ (MYR 19.70 nett). They are famous for their coffee but both of us did not order any.

All the items on their menu can be fitted in to a single page. Please click on the above photo for a larger image.
We checked/ticked 3 items in the order chit but they left out 1 item when keying in our order into their system and we did not check the bill until after half an hour so we had to wait for another 15 mins for the pasta dish. 

Chicken Cacciatora Spaghetti - MYR 23.90+ (MYR 26.30 nett). Quite a big portion so I ate a few bites from my friend's dish. The pasta is al dente. Taken from wiki: "Cacciatore means "hunter" in Italian. In cuisine, alla cacciatora refers to a meal prepared "hunter-style" with onions, herbs, usually tomatoes, often bell peppers, and sometimes wine".

Total bill for two pax.

A place to unwind and relax.

During lunch time there was a queue. I waited for a while but was allowed to go in (jump queue) as there was a two-pax table available and the people in front of me in the queue are all in groups of more than 2 pax. We may be back to try the other dishes and the coffee.

  3. I love that long sofas and cozy interiors. Fruit tea is ideal to sip and chat for long hours too.

    I miss Tim Ho Wan a lot as it brings memories of my father who enjoyed their food.

    1. It is refreshing. Are you ok with sour drinks because it is a bit sour in taste.

  8. That strawberry french toast looks irresistible. The spaghetti looks really good too. I went to Tim Ho Wan just once and I am glad I did before they disappeared :)

  10. It's not 'jumping queue' since it's by number of pax in the group. :p

    This place must be famous from somewhere if there is such a queue.
